Such a lovely office and staff. Everyone is kind, professional and friendly. I was sad to lose Dr. Doell after many years (15 or 20 yrs I think) but Dr. Crane was immediately reassuring with his professionalism, knowledge and ability to thoroughly and patiently answer my questions and make my appointment enjoyable and reassuring. Such warm professionalism!NP 9/25/18
